Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Yet he's sofa king angry when others do the same.
Also he puts his wiener into furniture and says he doesn't
You mean he's angry-fucking sofas?
💥 GOT'EM
Lies have a well known conservative bias.
These dudes contribute nothing but division to society and somehow they are deemed more worthy of a commidating existence than a lot of us who work their ass off every day? Fuck these people and this system that props them up. We factually do not need people like this to run a society.
The tribe would have beat cunts like him senseless. We still should.
Sometimes it feels like the tribe mentality is the solution and the problem. Probably because consensus reality does not exist anymore.
The problem is that the tribe is now global assholes connected digitally instead of people connected by distance.
Not only does the Republican presidential candidate have no ideas about running the country, the existing senator of Ohio, someone presently in power, is busy making up stories for the media to illustrate "white Americans' plight" rather than actually working on legislation that will help his constituents.
Acting all persecuted is kinda the conservatives' thing. Just sayin'
Harrumph!
Oh, that’s fair game according to him? I have a good story! It involves a couch.
2 couch 1 vance?
I hear JD Vance once fucked 12 couches in a Ashley's Furniture store before security managed to throw his lubed up ass out.
Is there a you fuck it you buy it clause like you break it you buy it?
Now there is
The signs always have a reason
He says he lies.
Corporate News: “creates stories”!
I'm surprised alternative facts hasn't come up.
But the hundreds of constituents who called him to report their dog being eaten by Haitians but not the cops are real, right?
To be fair I've called his office like 50 times to complain about eating dogs. Of course I don't live in Springfield and dont have any pets.
Are they in the room, now? Can anyone else see them?
Hey Guardian, that's called lying. You can say lying here without liability.
The admission is what sets him apart from Donald. I don't know why other Repubs are unable to just double down on a lie the way Donald is. They have seen how effective it is with their dimwitted voters, what's the incentive to own up? Just draw the hurricane path you want with Sharpie.
Everything they say is to distract from the fact that they have no policies that improve the lives of the vast majority of their constituents.
There's that problem and the problem that people who vote for them often think they will be rich one day so it's only logical to vote for the guys who help the rich. Or they're in poverty but think they're middle class so they look down on helping the poor. Mental illness on a scale never seen before.
Lying liar.
Nice that he finally admits that he is a liar - which we all knew long ago.
This should go down well in the upcoming debate!
Couch boy lies and lies all the time. Nothing new about that.
I thought the number one rule of being a liar: lie about being a liar. Just how dumb is this loser?
